This cart/trolley has been made so so well that it’s unimaginable to think something like this should even exist!! No one will make the wheels that’s machined from stainless steel and then have hand riveted spokes that stainless as well I am sure attached to the wheel rim. And it looks so scale and premium! The rest are brass, stainless and the brackets and swivel front end are anodized aluminum. The wheels rotate smooth, they are brass bushed. The swivel front end it’s on a freaking thrust bearing for that smooth motion. I see that in one of the renderings there was a leaf spring up front. I will make some from sst and add it in. Make the skid from your fav wood and bolt it on for a custom trolley! Such an underdog. Can be used for antique hit and miss engines, steam engines, a logging cart and a number of things.
I was wanting to add wheels to my existing HM-01 and this addition doesn't disappoint. It was easy to add the wheels, they even provided a drill, as you have to drill the HM-01 sled to mount the wheels. Might have been nice to also include an allen-key (but I have many). A quality addition to the HM-01.
I pre-ordered and it arrived today, July 18 in MA USA. This cart kit is the perfect addition to the HM-01! Spoke rivets appear to be brass. Painted and polished parts are nicely detailed. The reason for the 4 stars is there isn't the leaf spring for the front axle assembly. Also, I've seen a rendition that sort of showes a shoe brake assembly for the rear. Had I not been hoping these were included it be rating 5 plus stars. Maybe there'll be an option or upgrade for these parts to really complete this model. I didn't include any pics since I received exactly what is shown in the listing pics.
